GIST Day 8

Today Kailee had her first day at soccer practice. We were suppose to wake up early and be there by 8:30 a.m. Jon let me sleep in until 8 because Gracie wasn't able to go from being sick. He had her dressed, feed and her hair in a pony tail. Plus, I woke up to the smell of coffee waiting for me. Nothing better than a daddy that has everything in order. I'm so grateful for him.

Heck ache.

This morning Gracie woke up and said, "I have a heck ache."
I asked, "Where does it hurt?"
Gracie replied, "In my head is where the heck hurts."
I said, "Sorry the heck is hurting. What can we do to make it better."
Gracie said, "Heck ache medicine like the kind that is pink and round."
I said, "You think it works on heck aches?"
Gracie said, "Yeah it does you said you had a heck ache and it worked for you."

GIST

I was reading through past enteries and came upon this 365 days of Grace In Small Things. It is perfect.

Day 6: A stay at home sick day with my girls, filled with cuddles, snuggles and little silly moments. 

We snuggled on the couch and talked about all the fun things that a person can do with their hands. Perfectly hilarious. 

Restroom Follies

Kailee was in the bathroom, I hear,"um, can someone please come and help me a little."

Then as I'm about to say, "I'll be right there." She says, "Oh ok, never mind I'm not trapped after all."

***********

Gracie was in the public bathroom with me. We can hear a baby crying.

She says to me, "man some babies shouldn't be allowed in bathrooms."

I replied, "When you were a baby you cried when you had your diaper changed too."

She says, "Oh mom, you have a short memory."

When we were camping over the summer, we were down at the beach.

I had the girls there by myself while Jon was working. Kailee said she needed to go to the bathroom.

Gracie looked at her from the water and says, "oh just pee in the water, it's ok, dad said."
